Frans Nielsen on the Wings' resiliency in defeating Carolina 4-1 The Detroit News
Raleigh, N.C. — As disappointing as Tuesday’s loss for the Red Wings, this victory was satisfying and needed.
The Red Wings came into Raleigh Thursday and put together a much more credible and workmanlike effort in a 4-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes.
It wasn’t perfect, and goaltender Jonathan Bernier (38 saves) saved the Wings often. But they certainly erased the memory of a stinging loss in Philadelphia.
“I didn’t think it was pretty in any way tonight,” said forward Frans Nielsen, whose second period goal broke a 1-1 tie.
